Panchang
Today is Amavasya of Krishna Paksha in Ashwin month, with the Moon in Purva Phalguni Nakshatra. It is observed as Sarva Pitru Amavasya, Ashwina Amavasya and Darsha Amavasya. Rahu Kaal: 1:47 pm–3:19 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:50 am to 12:39 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 17 September 2020, the tithi in Delhi is Amavasya, from 07:57 pm (prev day) to 04:30 pm, followed by Pratipada, from 04:30 pm to 12:51 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Bhadrapada (Amanta) / Ashwin (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Purva Phalguni, from 12:20 pm (prev day) to 09:48 am, then Uttara Phalguni, from 09:48 am to 06:59 am (next day) on Thursday, 17 September 2020 in Delhi. The Moon is in Leo and the Sun in Virgo.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Thursday) runs from 01:47 pm to 03:19 pm. It is a period of about 90 minutes that is traditionally avoided for starting new ventures; its timing depends on the weekday and on local sunrise and sunset, so it differs from city to city.
In Delhi on Thursday, 17 September 2020, sunrise is at 06:06 am and sunset at 06:23 pm; moonrise is at 05:40 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:50 am to 12:39 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 06:06 am–07:39 am; Labh 12:15 pm–01:47 pm; Amrit 01:47 pm–03:19 pm; Shubh 04:51 pm–06:23 pm. Choghadiya divides the day and the night into eight parts each; Amrit, Shubh and Labh are the auspicious ones.
The Panchang is computed for the exact coordinates of Delhi (28.61°N, 77.21°E) from the real positions of the Sun and Moon. Tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana are shown with their start and end times, in Delhi's local time.
“Panchang” means “five limbs”: tithi (lunar day), vaar (weekday), nakshatra (the lunar mansion the Moon occupies), yoga (a Sun–Moon angular combination) and karana (half of a tithi). Together with Rahu Kaal, Abhijit Muhurat and choghadiya, they are used to choose favourable times for prayers, travel and new beginnings.
